NSW: 19 June 'Fair Go for Workers Compensation Day'


A fair go was stripped from NSW workers one year ago on 19 June 2012 when the NSW O’Farrell Government cut back the Workers Compensation system.

Unions NSW is declaring 19 June 2013 ‘Fair Go for Workers Compensation Day’.

On this day invite your neighbours over for a cup of tea and a lamington or hold a morning tea at your work. Talk about what the loss of workers compensation rights and entitlements means to you and those you care about.

Here’s a flyer WC Flyer you can use to advertise your event. Send us some pictures of your event at: wc@unionsnsw.org.au and we’ll post them online.

If you’re in Sydney, join us at 1pm on 19 June 2013 in the Jubilee Room at the Parliament of NSW, Macquarie Street, Sydney. RSVP wc@unionsnsw.org.au.

On 19 June 2013 we will also launch the results of our on-line survey regarding the workers compensation cuts. You can still complete this survey if you haven’t had the chance already.

For more information on the workers compensation cuts go to www.nswforall.org.au

We hope you can join us in highlighting this savage attack on injured workers and their families.
